Prepare Kurukku by adding 2 tbsp Rava/semolina to 2 Cups of water. Boil and stir constantly till it becomes a thick paste.

Mix 2 cups Rice Flour, 3 tbsp Sugar, Kurukku(at room temp), yeast, 1/2 cup coconut milk, salt to taste. Add water and whisk to make a thick batter.
Let this ferment for 8 hrs.

Pazham Puzhungiyathu
Cut a ripe plantain with the peel into 4 pieces and steam for 15 mins. The peel will turn black.
Peel and Cut the steamed pieces into thin rounds. Mix ghee and sugar/honey in a bowl. Toss these steamed pieces in ghee mixture and serve with Pappadum. The sweet and salt combo is just sooo mouthwatering. Have fun :-)
